Haitian Voodoo Art






Haitian's like to practice there religion through art as well.  They decorate bottles, which are know as liberation bottles.  These bottles are made from empty rum containers and decorated using sequins and beads.  They also have what are known as magic bottles.  They are covered with cloth and have objects attached to it such as mirrors.  These are said to attract desired people and deflect others that are not.
